The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-5108-1 advisory.

It was discovered that Libntlm incorrectly handled specially crafted NTML requests. An attacker could     possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or another unspecified impact.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
